Potting Out
Potting out is an agreement with another player to take money out of a pot, often to buy food or drinks or to make side bets. It is done with the consent of the players.
The simple explanation
In some home games, players may agree to take a small amount from the pot for pizza or a snack. This is called potting out.
A closer look
The practice is part of home games and has no place in casinos. The amount and use should be agreed before the game. It resembles a kitty, in which a small part of each pot is put aside for costs.
A practical example
Players agree to take $10 from the pot to order pizza.
